• SDN-aware framework for the management of cooperative WLANs/WMNs 

  Sajjadi Torshizi, Seyed Dawood (2019-01-07)

  Drastic growth and chaotic deployment of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) in dense urban areas are some of the common issues of many Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and Wi-Fi users. These issues result in a substantial ...
• Object detection in refrigerators using Tensorflow 

  Agarwal, Kirti (2019-01-02)

  Object Detection is widely used in many applications such as face detection, detecting vehicles and pedestrians on streets, and autonomous vehicles. Object detection not only includes recognizing and classifying objects ...
• Polygonization of implicit models 

  Rovira Galvez, Mauricio Andres (2018-12-20)

  In computer graphics, implicit modelling is a way of representing models by using combinations of implicit functions. These are then polygonized to produce a mesh typically formed from either quads or triangles. We present ...
• Scalable analytics of massive graphs 

  Popova, Diana (2018-12-20)

  Graphs are commonly selected as a model of scientific information: graphs can successfully represent imprecise, uncertain, noisy data; and graph theory has a well-developed mathematical apparatus forming a solid and sound ...
• Scalable algorithms for misinformation prevention in social networks 

  Simpson, Michael (2018-12-19)

  This thesis investigates several problems in social network analysis on misinformation prevention with an emphasis on finding solutions that can scale to massive online networks. In particular, it considers two problem ...
• Human-informed robotic percussion renderings: acquisition, analysis, and rendering of percussion performances using stochastic models and robotics 

  Van Rooyen, Robert Martinez (2018-12-19)

  A percussion performance by a skilled musician will often extend beyond a written score in terms of expressiveness. This assertion is clearly evident when comparing a human performance with one that has been rendered by ...
• Using EEG to decode semantics during an artificial language learning task 

  Foster, Chris (2018-12-04)

  The study of semantics in the brain explores how the brain represents, processes, and learns the meaning of language. In this thesis we show both that semantic representations can be decoded from electroencephalography ...
• Towards a deeper understanding of current conversational frameworks through the design and development of a cognitive agent 

  Angara, Prashanti Priya (2018-11-28)

  In this exciting era of cognitive computing, conversational agents have a promising utility and are the subject of this thesis. Conversational agents aim to offer an alternative to traditional methods for humans to engage ...
• Autocorrelation coefficients in the representation and classification of switching functions 

  Rice, Jacqueline Elsie (2018-11-21)

  Reductions in the cost and size of integrated circuits are allowing more and more complex functions to be included in previously simple tools such as lawn-mowers, ovens, and thermostats. Because of this, the process of ...
